Maintenance
The tractor must be maintained regularly. Correct maintenance at the right time is essential to ensure reliable
operation of the tractor.
Maintenance costs are small compared to repair costs resulting from lack of maintenance. The most important
measures are those you carry out yourself, including lubrication and various checks and adjustments.

the periodical maintenance is carried out by Valtra authorised and trained service personnel.
